I got majorly lucky today. My Dad has a old guitar that has a broken neck. He said I could keep it though. It only looks broken from the back and now I can take some awesome pictures of Spain with a really cool prop!

Ugh. I really don't think I can fit this cosplay right without a dressform. It has to fit skin-tight, but it's ALSO pleather, and I have to fasten it up the sides, which I can't really do on morethan one side without right-out sewing it. So combine the two, and just "keep sewing and try and fit it right" won't work because it'll mark up my cosplay. FUCK. And I'm still trying to figure out just how I can do the neck/collar AND get into the damn thing. There's a high collar and lights everywhere I could possibly put a zipper, and the mesh/neoprene on the throat and chest would pretty well have to be sewn in place, and I am NOT even gonna try putting an invisible zipper into that.

I've been watching a ton of Yu Yu Hakusho today while I decorated my christmas tree, I think I'm going to cosplay Sakyo. I've been wanting to on-and-off for a month or so now and I think I'm just gonna go for it, I already have everything except a wig anyway.

Squee! After moaning about the impossibility of getting this thing fitted right without a form to use, Mom said "How much? I'll get you one for your birthday" (which is in two weeks). I'm soooooooo thankful. A dressform will make all of my costumes a crapton easier and I've wanted one, just never particularly NEEDED one, for a long damn time.

Well since I have time on my hand I'm going to be working on fixing my Mizore skirt because: 1) it's big on me since I lost weight since the last time I made it (yay for weight lost xD ) and 2) because when I made this skirt I did it by hand and now that I know how to use a sewing machine I'd like to make it better! ^_^

I'm also re-making my Sailor Mercury skirt because when I was last making it I was kinda in a rush and I accidently cut it a bit too short in the back and well since I'll be taking her to ALA soon I don't want any accidents happening xD my sailor tiara should arrive by the end of the month!

And now I have sudden urge to cosplay as Sherry from RE6 and a team magma grunt xD oh me and my silly ideas haha~!

Just got home from Kollision Con, and now uploading videos. I have to say that this year was pretty bad and organized compared to last, but it had it's moments. Lots of Gangnam Style throughout the weekend!

Friends seem to keep asking my about a con in December, but still not sure I'm going. Leaning towards no though, but you never know :/

So I just found out my wig for my Heroine is here on campus. It wasn't in my mailbox though. >_> Well then, I need to go on a mad hunt around campus for it. It's also the third week after I paid the commissioner for Morgiana's bracelets. She said she would have an update for me by the third week. Really hope it comes soon, I can't wait to see them.

I've been really obsessed with FF X-2 music recently it's so weird. 0_o Honestly, it's been making me want to cosplay Lenne despite the fact that I've NEVER played the game and I really don't want to cosplay from something I never played.

Man, I was really hoping to have both of these cosplays done this week. OTL This is going to be difficult. My surprise cosplay is at the point where it should be downhill from here though at least, since it looks like all the really difficult stuff is over. As for Fluttershy, she really couldn't be easier, so she'll be a breeze to finish up. xD; Yay!
